The Alfred Landecker Democracy Fellowship calls for project proposals for impactful political or civic initiatives. They also welcome proposals that aim at founding an organization or network. Proposals can, for example, be based on community organizing, digital campaigning or cultural strategizing. The implementation of the project needs to be accompanied by various activities, both on- and offline. The project involves the public as well as specific stakeholders related to the initiative. Together with new partners and Humanity in Action alumni, the Fellows work closely with each other and Humanity in Action staff.

From November 7, 2021 to November 6, 2022, the Landecker Democracy Fellows implement their project ideas and related activities. Humanity in Action provides guidance, structured programming, and supervision.

They offer our Fellows an intense virtual and on-site training program throughout the year including topics such as Ecosystem Mapping & Defining Audiences; Social Media Messaging; Creating Community & Holding Space; Building High-Performance Teams and Empathy.
